Flowerpots Honor Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce

A local artist in Kansas City, Mo. hopes to catch the attention of Taylor Swift.

Stan Herd is a native Kansan who makes “earthworks” creations across the country. “Earthworks” use plants and the earth to transform landscapes into works of art.

His latest creation has 165 flowerpots on one acre of land. The flowers spell out “TS + TK” (Travis Kelce)– in honor of the romance.

Stan Herd said, “The world is under the weight of a lot of hate and we all kind of need a love story to hang onto our humanity.”

Herd says even if the piece fails to catch Swift’s attention, it was worth making for the world to see.

“Maybe it goes nowhere. We don’t really care. Right now, there is a love affair, and America needs a love affair with all this crazy stuff going on around the world.”
